I doubt if that would ever replace critical mass, because any minority will tell you that pissing off the majority is empowering and pretty fun even if it is ineffective in furthering a cause. I think the manners riders are on to something. The gap between cyclists and motor vehicles needs to be bridged and if people behind their wheels have enough time to lay off their horns, they might just realize they'd rather be feeling the breeze in their hair and pumping pedals on the way home. Josh, remember me- the cookee from camp Kiwanis during training week? I'm going through Vancouver next week. We should meet up. How do I get a hold of you?
